AFC Wimbledon player ratings: Millwall loanee a star performer along with goalscorer Pigott

BY MARK RITSON

Tom King – A couple of early routine catches in the first half, but had nothing to do after that. Called into action late on to push away a free-kick, but he had an easy game. Clean sheet. 8

Tennai Watson – Kept it simple, having a good battle with Hanlon. Battled on with an injury at the end. 7

Ben Purrington – Defended with ease and got forward often in the first period. Quieter first half but impressed overall. 8

Deji Oshilaja – On the end of a crude challenge from Hanlon in the first period. Some bursting runs forward in the second half and put body on the line for one blockage. 8

Liam Trotter – Got forward when possible but kept things ticking in the middle. Not much influence in the second half. 6

Tom Soares – Quiet first half, needed to have more of an influence. Burst into life early in the second half with a powerful run and pass. Went off injured in the second half. 5

Rod McDonald – Easy first period, hardly under threat. Same in the second half, he did well. 7

Andy Barcham – Bursts of quality down the left, linking up with Purrington. Kept going as the game went on but not too much of a threat.6

James Hanson – Held the ball up well and was so unlucky to hit the woodwork in the first half. No other chances. 6

Joe Pigott – Like Hanson, held the ball up well but had three chances in the opening 45. Opened the scoring with a deserved goal, rounding the goalkeeper and finishing well. He had a fantastic game. 8

Substitutes

Kwesi Appiah – Bit of pace to support Pigott, but had no chances. 6

Anthony Wordsworth – Quiet introduction. 5

Mitch Pinnock – Impressed. Looked to take on his opponent down the right, and then got back to clear what would have been a certain goal, taking a bump in the back to achieve it. 7
